Leadership, Structural Changes for DoD Silicon Valley Office

WASHINGTON — Secretary of Defense Ash Carter is expected Wednesday to announce an expansion of his Silicon Valley outpost to other regions around the country, as well as changes to leadership at the Defense Innovation Unit-Experimental (DIUX) office.

The changes, which are expected to be announced during a speech by the secretary to California, come after months of what sources describe as internal bureaucratic challenges to DIUX.
